Awesome Tardis Bunk Bed That Features Doctor Who Quotes!

doctor who bunk bed Awesome Tardis Bunk Bed That Features Doctor Who Quotes!
Check out this brilliant fanmade Doctor Who bed, which is not only brilliant because it’s made to look like a Tardis, but also because it features a quote from the 11th Doctor (played by Matt Smith) proclaiming the inherent coolness of bunk beds (if that was ever in any doubt)!!

D’awww I would have loved one of these when I was a kid, but my party-pooping parents wouldn’t let me get a bunk bed when I was a youngling, in case I fell out of it….Their high hopes for me were painfully obvious, even from such a tender age!

Awesome Cardboard Castle Office Cubicle

cube castle 1 Awesome Cardboard Castle Office Cubicle
Office cubicles aren’t usually people’s favorite places to kill time, as well as lacking character, they are normally the place where we have to undertake that torturous thing known in some cultures as ‘work’.

Well one Redditor decided that his office cubicle wasn’t going to be like the majority of others and used a shit-load of cardboard to turn it into a castle, complete with working drawbridge. Guarding the entrance to his kingdom is a mean-looking paper shredder, which should prevent the unwanted entry of the dreaded boss, or enemy forces from unfriendly neighboring kingdoms.

Classic Game Of Thrones Scenes Recreated In LEGO

game of thrones lego 1 Classic Game Of Thrones Scenes Recreated In LEGO
Despite how much we might want LEGO that allow us to recreate our favorite scenes from Game Of Thrones, it’s unlikely that we’ll ever get official LEGO sets for George R.R. Martin’s hit series. They are just too violent, too sexually explicit and have too many other adult themes, but that hasn’t stopped some fans – because if LEGO don’t make the sets you want, such is the nature of the versatile construction material that you always have the option of creating your own.
